Just bought a 2025 ES Hybrid. What kind of mpg can I expect? Also, what grade of fuel do owners use and recommend?

 

Since you have a seventh generation, you would probably get a better response if you post in that forum rather than here in the sixth generation forum.

There are so many variables involved in MPG that it is hard to predict. How you drive and the conditions are a couple of things to consider. Some get in the high 40s and others down in the 30s. The rating of 44 MPG is probably a good metric to start with.

I haven't heard of anyone using anything other than regular gas, which is what it is designed to use.

 

I am not getting what they post. I get about 38 mpg/ I use 87 octane. I also think I live in a state that changes the formulation in the summer and I also have been usng my AC. So I will see what happens when the weather cools.

 

Check out this thread on gas mileage in the seventh generation forum:

Expect between 40-47 MPG.
Use regular gas.

 

One other factor that has dramatically reduced our mileage is whether you're driving in a hilly area. We live in San Diego County, which is mostly canyons and mini-mountain ranges. Every trip we take involves going up and down with a vertical change of 500 feet. We are also retired and do a lot of short trips. Consequently, our calculated mileage is typically 31 mpg as opposed to the upper 30s to low 40s that most 2016 ES 300H owners experience. We had the same experience with the 2007 Nissan Altima Hybrid that we had for 11 years.
